Living between his bed and his wheelchair, Porfirio - a man who lives in a town on the edge of the Amazon - dreams of being able to fly.
Porfirio tells the story of Porfirio Ramirez, a man who became handicapped after a failed police operation where he was shot in the back in 1991. Because of this, Porfirio sues the state, but due to several problems with the case, the lawsuit gets closed. With no money, and many problems, Porfirio takes a risky decision with his son: Hijack a plane and demand a meeting with the President of Colombia to discuss his problems. Based in the true story of Porfirio Ramirez.—Jayson A.S.
Confined to a universe that stretches only from bed to wheelchair, Porfirio - a man in diapers who sells call time on his cell phone in a faraway city on the outskirts of the Colombian Amazon - dreams that he can fly.
